    that describes half the team in ME2

    Half the team in ME2 didn't blow up a civilian work camp because it was a nuisance.

    Didn't Jack blow up a space station? Just sayin'.

    There's some easy ways to bring back Saren, I can already think of two good ones, but in no way would I hold Bioware to it because that Mass Effect team shits gold as far as I'm concerned.

    Jack seems to have a history of blowing people up and murdering people she doesn't like.

    Zaeed is the founder of the Blue Suns. They're awful people. They don't do nice things, ever.

    Garrus' method of dealing with criminals, ironically, has come very close to Saren's. And he used to hate Saren for it.

    Miranda and Jacob work for Cerberus. Sure, Jacob's got a heart of gold, but Miranda sure as shit does not.

    Grunt...who the fuck knows what Grunt's going to eventually do? Whatever it is, it isn't good.

    Mordin's got a heart of gold too, but he's only a few steps short of a sociopath. Hello, Genophage?


    A resurrected and slightly reformed Saren could sit with this group. Hell, he
    puts a gun to his head after realizing what a dick he's been
    , like half of the work is already done, there.

    Only humans are badass enough to lure all the Reapers to Earth for an epic battle, and then when the machines think they're going to fuck our day up we ignite a huge solar flare or flat out blow up the sun just as we escape through the mass relay.

    Yes we lose Earth, but we destroy the Reapers and are the heroes of the galaxy. Basically we just take any other planets we want to centuries.

    AND IN A SURPRISE TWIST
    humanity then lives outside the galaxy.. only to become
    THE REAPERS
    IT IS US
    THE REAPERS IS PEOPLE

    Standing up, arms stretched out to your sides as far as they go, tilting left or right to steer. You wiggle your hands in a certain way to activate the relay, and make "ZOOOOOOOOOOM" and "RRRRRRT" sounds with your mouth to indicate moving forward or stopping.

    "PEWPEW" and "FWOOSH" sounds for lasers and missiles, respectively.

    you know.. that actually sounds like a fun as hell idea

    What? No, I did.

    Dude felt something had to be done, calculated that if he didn't do this awful horrible thing, the Krogan would be extinct.

    He did it.

    He wishes someone else had been there to do it, instead, because it really sucked, but he's sticking to his convictions.

    And while he's not exactly sticking to a Hippocratic Oath, here, he's got most of it to live by, and this comes close enough to breaching it that it pisses him off.

    Listening to the ME2 soundtrack in preparation.

    Samara's theme grows on me more and more each time. It's just so *different* than all the others. The whole soundtrack is gold though. I'm tempted to spend my Amazon giftcards on the 2 extra music mini-soundtracks they released.

    He's a far cry from the mercenary thug Krogans you run into throughout the series.

    But then again, that might not be a good thing. :P

    What

    Kaiden only says anything of you go and talk to him and even then you have to persuade him to actually talk about shit in his past which he totally has put behind now.

    Even if you don't talk to Ashley she's always fucking spouting off in the briefing room and usually it's by criticising someone else.

    I'm like shut the fuck up Gunnery Sergeant Williams and get out of my briefing room don't you have drills to run or something

    And if you do talk to her it becomes clear pretty quickly why she shouldn't say anything, because she's a moron.

    I'd like Kaiden and Jacob better if they gave me a reason to. They're boring to have on your team because other people do what they do only better and they're boring to talk to. It's not like I hate them, I just don't care. Jacob's loyalty quest was baller and I still came out of it not giving a fuck about him.

    Man, when I rolled up on that planet and saved his butt in the second game, did he give me a bro hug and tell me it's good to see me again? No, he just bitched me out for dying and getting resurrected by the Devil of Mankind himself, as if I had any say in it. Of course I'm playing it cool with cerberus right now, did you see this awesome ship they gave me.

    Why can't you just be happy for me man? The fuck, Kaiden, I thought we were bros! Maybe I should've saved Ashley instead.
    still would have boned Liara though.
